Prep Scholar Gabriel Jones with the National Championship Trophy

We have a football star at Prep!  Gabriel Jones (8^th grade) plays starting center and defensive lineman for the G3 Rising Stars, an Indianapolis based youth team which is part of the National 13 youth football league.  This past weekend the G3 Rising Stars became the first inner city team from the Midwest to win the National Championship when they shutout the North Texans 14-0. Look for the upcoming profile of the team on the NFL’s website.  Congratulations Gabriel!
